I bought this and created a way to integrate this AMAZING resource with my product.
It compliments it very well to say the least! I used AWP as a pretest, then I went through my program---
http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Improve-recognition-for-look-alike-words-Therapeutic-Activities-699611
And finally I used Accuracy word pairs as a post test.
I am starting a new session with another student today and I will use Accuracy Word Pairs again.
I also printed out and cut up the cards, I sent a word list home with the student, their task is to MATCH like pairs and write them down.
I am so lucky that I didn't have to reinvent the wheel. Thanks so much. If you are ever in the area, let's have coffee!
I am from Rochester, NY -- btw!

MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
My pin said "comprehension activities." I'm sorry you misread it! Please check my product descriptions. They always list what's included in each product. Not sure what kind of quiz you're looking for but I would be happy to help if you're looking for something specific. Email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com. Hope you enjoy the poem!

This is super helpful. I just got overwhelmed with its size. THere is so much. I laminated the word cards and 5 sheets and used in small group work. DEFINITELY worth the prep time. My Lucky Ducks laugh and love noticing the differences. They don't like to get tricked.

Hi MsJordanReads,
I have purchased the fluency boot camp. I wanted to add my own sentences and phrases to the fluency cards - is there a way to type into the blank ones you provided?
Thank you!

MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
Unfortunately the file is a PDF and you're not able to type your own sentences. I do not offer it as a Word document because of font compatibility (I purchase my fonts and most are not recognized by Word), formatting issues, and copyright. PDFs allow me to keep all my hard work secure. If there are specific sentences you would like to see, please email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com and I be happy to put them on cards for you (within reason). :) Let me know! I hope you understand!

Jackie Gray (TpT Seller) re: Fluency Boot Camp {A Fun Introduction to Fluency!}
I am going to purchase the fluency boot camp that you just posted to use with 3rd and 4th grade students during summer school. These students are in danger of retention because of their reading level. Summer School is 1/2 day. Are there other parts of your fluency that I need to consider purchasing to assist, I saw a lot of additional materials in your store. I am purchasing out og my own pocket :0(
May 5, 2013
MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
I totally understand out of pocket costs! If you check out my blog post (linked also in FB) there are many free resources I linked up to that can be used to supplement (Florida Research Center has a TON!). There's nothing in my store that you HAVE to have but many people love the speed drill word list packets to practice pace and the Daily Fluency packets for warm ups (I'm working on the June/July packets but none if them are season specific so you can go out of order!). There is a Beginner and Intermediate level for each Daily Fluency packet. Also, I'm sure you saw, but this week is my sale so you can get these items 28% off! Again, none if them are necessary if you want to explore the free options out there! Let me know if you have any other questions.
May 5, 2013
MrsFarver re: "Daily Fluency" Activity Pack (March - April)
Are you going to do these for September/October? I really hope so!
March 20, 2013
MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
I am! I plan on completing a full-year of Daily Fluency for both levels. May/June will be in my store soon. :) I'm glad you like them. I know it helps my own students tremendously.

February 24, 2013
bethangeli10 re: Fluency Boot Camp {Sight Word Pack}
This product is exactly what I am looking for, but I am wondering if it is appropriate for first graders? I notice grade 1 isn't listed. Or if you have one that would be more appropriate? Thanks! Beth

Beth,
Although I listed this product for grades 2+, there are many K/1 teachers who have purchased this product and found it to be appropriate for their students. I guess it depends on the reading level of your first graders. If the students you intend to use this product with have basic sight word recognition and are starting to build fluency, I would say this product would be great. Mid-first grade would be my starting point if I worked with that grade level. I use many of the activities with my struggling 2nd graders and it has helped tremendously. You can modify what/how you use it, too!
Hope this helps! I wish we could email individual customers because I would love for you to ask some of the first grade teachers who have reviewed this product. Feel free to read some of their reviews in the feedback section. The product thumbnail preview may be helpful too, so you can look at the word cards and materials.
Email me msjordanreads@gmail.com if you have more questions of need more details!

Ms. Jordan I am purchasingu Fluency bootcamp I also love the Daily Fluency Activity pack. Do I need to purchase the Sept packet to start with or can I jump into February?? Renee Fruge
February 14, 2013
MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
The packets are not season specific and you can start them at any point! Many of my students have been using them since November but others are just starting next week. Once you teach the activities the students can work at their own pace (which is great if they're ever absent or you miss a day!).
The remaining packets for the year should be done soon, but try one packet out and see how your students do with the activities first!
Let me know if you have any other questions!

It should be fixed now! Again, SO sorry for the tech glitch. I'm still not sure what happened, but it should work. If it STILL doesn't, please email me and I'll get the product to you via email. I'm hoping everything is good now though. :)

This isn't a question but I wanted to let you know that I love your fluency products and think they're genius! I'm using the Fluency Bootcamp right now and am going to purchase your January/February Daily Fluency stuff.
If you are not a National Board Certified Teacher, you should really consider it. The Early/Middle Childhood Literacy Language-Arts certification is right up your alley! Keep up the good work :)

I am so glad that I found your page on here and can't believe I went this long without knowing of your products! I am definitely spreading the word to others!! Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing back about more of the word pairs!!

Update 2/7: The new product is almost done! I've added 16 accuracy word pair pages along with assessment & tracking resources! It will be a very comprehensive packet. if all goes well with the finishing touches, I'll be posting it tonight!
Thank you for your feedback! I am so glad that you find Accuracy Word Pairs as useful as I do. I use them a lot with students who have difficulty self-monitoring and for those who make a lot of visual errors when they read. I'd be happy to make an additional set. I will work on them this week. I'll try to have it posted by Wednesday! :) Feel free to email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com if you have additional questions or requests!

Hi, I am very interested in your Daily Fluency Activity packs. However, I only see separate products for November-February. Are the other months out of the school year available. MORE IMPORTANTLY- is there a bundle?
January 29, 2013
MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
Thank you for your interest! You're right... November/December and January/February are the only ones available in my store right now but March/April is almost done. I've been creating them each month for my own students and am hoping to get the remaining packets done in the next month. At that point I will most likely bundle.
It's up to you if you want to wait. There will be a total of 6 since I will be making ones for the summer months.
All available ones can be found here: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Msjordanreads/Category/Daily-Fluency-Activity-Pack
Let me know if you have any additional questions! If you follow my store here or on FB you'll see updates when the products become available.

Hello,
Love your Daily Fluency Activity Packs. The previews look great, and I am planning on purchasing your packs for Jan/Feb and Nov/Dec. Do you sell Daily Fluency Activity Packs for any other months? I am a Resource Room teacher and could use BOTH levels of any versions you have - I can't seem to find Sept/Oct, March/April, etc?
Many thanks,
Kristen

I'm working on them for the remaining months for both levels- Beginner & Intermediate! I just started creating them for my own students this past November and am hoping to finish the remaining months soon, especially now that I know there is interest. The nice thing is they are not season specific. I'm still using November & December packets with some of my students I don't see as frequently.
Hope this helps! Thank you for your interest and be sure to check back soon! :)

I am having trouble printing too. Some of the last sheets have print over print on them when they come out or I get an error message on my school printer and it freezes. Ever happen before? I am going to try from my home printer rather than at school and I hope this will solve the problem. Good resource! Thanks.
January 18, 2013
MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
I've never heard of a problem with overlapping print, just blurry pages. Perhaps an update of your Adobe would solve this? Try printing at home and if that still doesn't work please let me know. We can involve the TpT tech support team if necessary! Email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com if you're still having issues.

Hi! I downloaded your QAR packet, and pages 4-11 came out completely blurred. Looking at the feedback, I see that others have downloaded the packet just fine. I am wondering if it is my computer. Do you know if there's anything that I should have (Adobe, etc.) in order to view the packet correctly? Thank you!

MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
If that is the case, chances are you need to update your version of Adobe Reader (via the Adobe website or your version of the program).
Also, if you are on a Mac, do not open with Preview. It will not work. Download the most updated version of Adobe Reader and open the PDF with it (and not Preview).
Try doing that first and if you still have issues, I can try re-sending via email. Chances are its an Adobe issue thought. Email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com if you still have issues.

MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
I typically pose a question as a warm-up or post assessment. The students write their own responses first (so they're prepared with an answer of their own) and then they go around the class and interview each other with the same question. Students record their peers' responses on their own papers. They share their answers with their peers. It's different way for students to discuss and allows them to get up and move as the class is "stirred up." I will put these directions on the product as an update soon! Sorry for the confusion!

This would not print. It printed the first 3-4 pages and sent an error sheet through. I will try to print it at our office. Everything I purchased from tpt printed fine but this. Suggestions? Thank you!

I'm sorry you're running into issues with printing! This is the first time I've heard of this error message. If you're unable to print it at your office please let me know! I can try emailing it to you but I'm not sure if that would solve anything. Email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com if you would like me to try doing that. Maybe it's because of the size of the file? Please let me know! I can reach out to the TpT staff if necessary!

This product is not research-based from my own research, but I used research articles and research-based information to develop the ideas and materials. I have no reliability or validity data to share with you, only the feedback that is available on the product page. Using it as an intervention, I have seen great results with my Tier 2 and 3 RtI reading students, but that is experience only and not actual "research." Hope this helps! Feel free to email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com with additional questions.

The first four pages of this packet has glitches and I can't see anything on it. Please let me know how I can get a better copy.

If that is the case, chances are you need to update your version of Adobe Reader (via the Adobe website or your version of the program).
Also, if you are on a Mac, do not open with Preview. It will not work. Download the most updated version of Adobe Reader and open the PDF with it (and not Preview).
Try doing that first and if you still have issues, I can try re-sending via email. Chances are its an Adobe issue thought. Email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com if you still have issues.

MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
That's the first time I've heard that! Email me msjordanreads@gmail.com and I can reply with the file once I verify your purchase. I would let the TpT support team know so you don't run into this issue for future purchases. It could be the Internet server you use (Google Chrome is the best!).

Does your Fluency Boot Camp include resources and activities from FCRR?
October 12, 2012
MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
It supplements but does not have FCRR resources. You could use them together though if you wanted to blend resources! I share it as a great website for follow-up or reinforcing materials.

ikeangel re: Problem & Solution -- Text Structure Packet
Are there passages that the students will read or is this just posters????

MsJordanReads (TpT Seller)
There are no texts or passages. This packet can be used with any problem/solution text and provides 2 posters and 1 poem for structure identification, as well as 3 graphic organizers for recording problem/solution information. Student discussion cards are also included.
Please download the preview if you want to see the thumbnails! Let me know if you have any other questions, and email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com if you need help finding some resources to use with the packet!

Oh no! I've never heard of that before either! Please contact the support team if you run into this problem again... maybe it's your Internet browser? I know they've been having issues with certain browsers for file uploads so maybe it's the same for downloads.
In the mean time, I just tried downloading the file and it works OK for me. I verified your purchase though, so if you email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com I can email it to you! Sorry for the tech difficulties!

Hi Kristin,
I just sent an email to your blog, but I usually have better luck getting (or finding) the response on TPT. I am wondering where I would find an item called "Spelling/Vowel Pattern Word Lists" which are mentioned in "Fluency Boot Camp." I would like to purchase them if I can locate them. I think "Fluency Boot Camp" is awesome and I'm going to tell my teachers about it. I will also tell them to follow you on TPT and your blog. I am an Instructional Coach, and you can follow me on Pinterest if you are interested. Thanks for all your great products and your help with this issue.

Hi Shirley,
I'm finishing up some word lists this week for speed drills, but currently have long and short vowel word cards (can be used as a list if uncut) and Bossy /r/. Not sure when you are looking to have them by but it's been one of my summer projects to get those done. Should be done soon! If you need something right away, I know there are some free options available if you go to the FCRR website, too! I can message you too when my word lists are done, if you're interested though. :)
Thank you for spreading the word about my Fluency Boot Camp! I will definitely look for you on Pinterest!

I love the fluency boot camp, but when I printed all 72 pages, some of them got cut off or did not print properly. I am not sure what I did wrong. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks!

Try upgrading your Adobe via the Adobe website. Sometimes there's an update that you don't get alerts for. Try that first and if that doesn't work email me at msjordanreads@gmail.com and I can try to send it to you again. The update usually works for other customers who have had this problem. Let me know!

I am now one of your followers as well. Good luck in all your endeavors. Kris
